Tasty Tuesday -- Crockpot Edition

So lately my crockpot has seen more action than I have.

I blame pregnancy....on both.

But seriously....who doesn't love dumping a whole bunch of crap into a pot before work only to be greeted by a homecooked meal when you walk in the door?

Here's a few of my faves...some old some new. Enjoy!!

Chicken and Dumplings

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts

2 TB butter

2 cans condensed cream of chicken soup (I used 1 cream of chick/1 cream of celery)

1 can chicken broth

1 small onion, finely chopped

1 12 oz tube refrigerated biscuit dough torn into pieces

2 cans peas/carrots drained (optional)

(I also added a few generous shakes of salt and pepper)
Place chicken, butter, soup, chicken broth, veggies and onion in crockpot. Cover and cook 5 to 6 hours. About 60-90 minutes before serving shred the chicken and place the torn biscuit dough in the slow cooker. Cook until dough is no longer raw in center. (I kept the cooker on low until I added the dough, then switched to high for the last hour)

Black Bean Chicken

(This one I can't take full credit for...I borrowed if from Ms. D.A.R)

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 can black beans, rinsed

1 can corn, drained

2 cups salsa

4 oz cream cheese

Throw salsa, beans, corn, and chicken into crockpot for 6-8 hours on low. Shred chicken. Add cream cheese till melted - stir everything together - serve over rice or with tortillas.

BBQ Pork

Pork Tenderloin

Bottle BBQ sauce

Place pork in crockpot, cover with BBQ sauce. Cook all day. Shred meat. Eat.

Could it GET any easier than that??

Bon Appetite!!
